I finally got it all figured out. I have my business license, love of good food and the need to share all that I know by having small lessons with people. I don not claim to be a chef, a dietitian, or nutritionist, but I do know my way around the kitchen.
I love to show someone how to use a new ingredient as well as how to shop smarter. Shop local, shop fresh and use as much whole foods as possible

With that said, let me share some of the good eats I have had recently.
You may or may not know that we took our family vacation on the gulf this year.
It was awwwesome! We had planned on catching lots of fish, preparing great dishes, and bringing some home for later
We got Skunked! not a single fish caught. we could see them everywhere, we just couldn't get them to jump on into the boat.
Thank god we had a semi alternative plan. We brought stuff, and ate out.

This was one of my creations:A whole wheat flax seed pita stuffed with baby spinach, and grilled chicken. It was fantastic I must add.

Later that night we headed to the eatery and I had the Salmon. it was rather delightful however I would suggest ordering the sauce on the side. It was a bit sweet.

The best Place to EAT on the island was "The Bubble Room". Off the stinking hook deli-sh and the eclectic atmosphere was fabulous!!

Daisy and I had a mommy daughter date. I ate a simple avo, chicken pita ( fresh made pita!).

I snagged a few menus from the island so i could relive some of the great food, and rebuild the not so great!

Please feel free to follow me on face book to what the recipes come to life :)

~Who I am~

I am a happy wife and mother of two. Mother of two, not wife of two :}

I love good food. Sharing a meal with someone is one of life's greatest treasures. I enjoy passing along what I know as well as continuing to learn what I can about it. I am not classically trained, nor did I finish college.

Instead I traveled Europe and became the person I am today.

Our family tries to eat fresh and local.

Through my interactions I have been able to meet some really great people in the food community. Most are really nice and genuinely good people. I like to support and be involved in this sense of community.

I'm not part of any organized group. Not that I wouldn't want to be, but I just can not commit to anyone but my family right now.

Our children are young and I can only plate so much :)

Writing has become a great outlet for me. I hope you enjoy what I share with you and look forward to your insight.
